Boot your WinXP installation cd and it will let you repair the
installation.

Subject: [tclug-list] Help request: Dual-boot access problem

Hello;

Linux newbie/ fairly skilled Windows user - looking for some help.

I've created a dual boot (Win XP/Suse 10.1) on my laptop.  After several
problems and some web searching, it seems that the general consensus is 
that 10.1 is perhaps not the best version.  So I DL'd a Suse 10.0 ISO,
burned the DVD, put it in the drive and rebooted.  Came up to the
bootloader as usual but did not offer to boot from the media in the
drive.

So I decided to try starting "fresh", and not really thinking about it
too hard: I went into Windows and (though My Computer-Manage-Disc
Managment) deleted the two sub-partitions on the Linux partition -
leaving the Windows partition and a single "other" partition where Linux
was/is.  

When I rebooted, the bootloader stops with an "error 22" and will not
boot into anything (I was assuming that it would boot into Windows). 
Anyway, this is my issue - how to boot into windows/fix the bootloader. 
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
John
